Synopsis Methodology of Educational Research is a complete text-cum-reference book, it is designed to highlight the important steps needed for educational research. Wherever possible simple examples illustrating the principles have also been given. It is intended to develop an ever curious problem solving mind in the ranks of educational researchers who although of more than average mental ability and administrative training, often lack first hand knowledge of fundamental theories and practices in educational investigations. It should initiate such researchers into the principles of educational investigation so that these may help and not hinder the work of those upon whose efforts in the long run, any improvement in the national welfare must largely depend.
